well i'm trying to decide if i were in the press today how would i handle the news coverage today
00:03:25.560
on donald trump and all the world leaders one i guess i could run with a headline donald trump
00:03:31.480
is a fascist he's forced all of the world leaders to come and bow to his feet i could also say
00:03:39.620
uh let's see uh let's see trump let's say they just leave you know and they don't have a deal
00:03:47.040
but progress has been see i told you he would never get it done i mean this guy can't win and i'm so
00:03:53.960

00:05:41.260
yeah he's great um i hear he had a great weekend and that's pretty much all we care about um and then
00:05:49.100
we have uh jason buttrell here who is our chief researcher uh and uh and travel companion
00:05:55.820
lately he's almost like a viking cheerleader for me lately let's not go that far come on he's off to
00:06:02.820
the side you go go just keep going girl uh anyway um stew i'd love to hear i've been waiting to hear
00:06:09.980
your response to what's happening with uh donald trump and putin and then then we'll get into the
00:06:16.720
meeting that's going to go today but what was your take on putin in alaska can i start with the
00:06:22.060
media sure before the meeting the take from the media that i received for every single hour until
00:06:31.400
we got to the meeting was that donald trump loves dictators loves putin is being taken by putin is going
00:06:41.180
to give putin whatever he desires and we're going to make some terrible deal that is going to show
00:06:47.660
the you know the american way is gone he's just a he's just a sort of a uh fully owned subsidiary of
00:06:56.160
of mother russia right sure so then they come out and he has the press conference and he and putin says
00:07:03.020
we have a deal and then trump says well we don't have a deal until we have a deal
00:07:08.300
and goes through uh multiple times during his well he's very complimentary to putin as both sides
00:07:16.300
were goes through several times where he he specifically points out that we do not have a deal
00:07:21.060
and then i go back to the coverage i'm listening to i don't know one of the maybe it was cnn one of
00:07:26.540
the you know cable news networks doesn't matter in this one of the one of the things that nobody
00:07:30.800
watches anymore yes go ahead and they are immediately and have immediately switched their
00:07:36.220
position to can you believe this trump organized this big uh meeting with putin and then couldn't
00:07:43.880
get a deal done he it's a failure we we don't know what's going to come out of this but we can't say
00:07:49.920
he failed he wanted to get a deal he didn't get a deal it's like you can't have both of those
00:07:55.200
positions you can't say he's going to get a deal no matter what because he loves dictators and he loves
00:07:59.740
putin he's going to give him everything he's going to hand over all of ukraine and then the second
00:08:04.420
that doesn't happen you switch to the exact opposite position which is he didn't give enough
00:08:09.980
he didn't he didn't know how to negotiate the deal he didn't come up with the deal you can't have both
00:08:15.040
those positions and the most frustrating part about this is at some point in the next six months
00:08:19.360
there will be another story which makes them take the first position again as if it didn't already
00:08:26.320
completely fail and then they will not acknowledge any of the switches that they've made
00:08:30.880
it's infuriating to me i am so glad to hear you because that was the that was the biggest thing to
00:08:38.500
me the guy cannot win no matter what happens no matter what happened nobody could say one nice thing
00:08:46.080
about anything did you hear the argument about the red carpet he rolled out the red carpet for
00:08:51.580
vladimir putin well we didn't have a green one okay we didn't have one of another color uh i'm sorry
00:08:56.980
which carpet would you like to use we have one it's red uh i mean i just cannot take all of this and
00:09:05.600
you know to say that vladimir putin he won on the world stage go ahead go ahead vlad use those videos
00:09:12.200
of you and donald trump walking down the red carpet it looked like you and dorothy you know what i mean
00:09:21.040
and you were a munchkin and uh donald trump was dorothy she he looks like a giant compared to
00:09:27.880
to vladimir putin and then i just i know everybody's played this is just it was just so satisfying could
00:09:34.960
we please play the b2 bomber flyover i mean i just this and you know donald trump planned every bit of
00:09:43.820
this every bit of this was under his direction play the b2 bomber so there they are walking on that red
00:09:52.840
carpet and here they come screaming across the sky
00:09:58.100
now in my head this is how i this is how i see this donald trump's planning this whole thing he's
00:10:07.540
like yeah and i want the podium there we're going to be walking from the plane to the podium
00:10:10.820
and uh at that moment before we get to the podium i want that b2 bomber that is a b1b b2 b2 i want
00:10:18.580
that b2 bomber just flying right over our head and you know the military was like oh thank you mr
00:10:25.900
president yes we can do that uh and putin kind of stumbles a little bit and looks up at it i mean
00:10:32.740
you know it's cool he knows he's not being bombed but if that wasn't if that wasn't a by the way
00:10:37.840
welcome to alaska you're on our territory did you also notice what the podium said at the bottom
00:10:45.900
alaska 2025 not the u.s not you know bilateral meeting nothing alaska 2025 in red white and blue
00:11:00.220
uh i don't think putin won on this one now here's putin in the meeting here's trump and putin
00:11:07.900
putin teasing an end to the conflict in ukraine cut to me and president trump have built a very good
00:11:18.720
and have every reason to believe that moving down this path we can come
00:11:25.820
the sooner the better to the end of the conflict in ukraine thank you thank you
00:11:32.340
well thank you very much trump follows it would cut three please i believe we had a very productive
00:11:39.660
meeting there were many many points that we agreed on most of them i would say a couple of
00:11:45.040
big ones that we haven't quite gotten there but we've made some headway so uh there's no deal
00:11:52.680
until there's a deal i will call up nato in a little while i will call up uh the various people
00:12:00.500
that i think are appropriate and i'll of course call up president zelinski and tell him about today's
00:12:05.100
meeting it's ultimately up to them they're gonna have to agree with uh what marco and steve and some of
00:12:12.720
the great people from the trump administration who've come here scott and john radliff thank you
00:12:20.060
very much first of all can i just say you know he got on the plane and in the middle of the night
00:12:26.500
he's calling the world leaders after all of this he's calling the world leaders i'm tired just watching
00:12:32.920
the guy can anyone else give him credit for just he's like a nuclear power plant the guy never
00:12:41.480
ever stops i've never seen a president work this hard i mean i know other presidents and i'll give it
00:12:48.640
to you know barack obama and everything else but i have never and if you're honest and you don't you
00:12:54.900
don't vote the same way i do but you're honest you would say the same thing i've never seen anyone go
00:13:02.380
this hard all the time he doesn't seem to sleep so he gets on the plane and he starts calling the
00:13:10.700
world leaders now today germany uh maloney prime minister from uh italy france england's prime
00:13:21.060
minister who else is coming in and zelinski i has anybody ever seen that happen before
00:13:28.740
the president of the united states says hey god by the way guys i think we should all meet at the
00:13:33.940
white house come to my come to my house we're going to have a little meeting and they all show up
00:13:39.780
i mean again you have to just if you're honest recognize the history here this is historic i have
00:13:51.520
never maybe since fdr i have never seen the united states um call world leaders together and say hey
00:14:01.320
we all have to meet the u.n i can see them all meeting at the u.n but this is the united states
00:14:07.360
taking her position in the world back this is the united states saying yeah we we don't follow
00:14:15.780
anybody else we don't follow the u.n we don't need the u.n we don't need anything else we're the leader
00:14:23.000
in the world and we're taking the leadership uh position so why don't we all get together now there's
00:14:30.220
this the press again saying well you know why they're all coming because he's gonna be a bully on
00:14:37.260
zelinski oh god would you shut up it is honestly it is like the press it's it's if we hired
00:14:47.120
mrs olsen's third grade class to be the press that the the charges are so infantile over and over and
00:14:57.460
over again that i just can't take it so what does he say now it was interesting to hear what he just
00:15:06.900
said in that clip where he said we've come up with some things we don't have a solid deal yet
00:15:12.440
but we've come up with some things that if we can get them done would be very very good
00:15:16.820
towards peace one of those things and i think it was was it best and who was it that said that we
00:15:24.540
have an article five like uh agreement whitkoff so whitkoff was on i don't know one of the sunday
00:15:33.440
shows and he said we have an article five like agreement well that is game changing let me just
00:15:42.140
explain what article five means article five in case you don't know article five is part of the u.n
00:15:48.620
or sorry the nato treaty and that's the part of the treaty that says an attack on one is an attack on
00:15:56.240
all that's the reason why russia does not want ukraine to be part of nato because if there's
00:16:05.820
ever a skirmish at the border and russia attacks that means it's world war automatically now
00:16:14.640
we've never had to invoke article five i don't know at this point if article five means all that
00:16:21.160
much means what it used to mean but at least it is an official treaty this is why putin did not
00:16:29.200
want nato there because it's a gateway right into russia for nato so he's like no nato countries i want
00:16:35.720
a buffer between nato and russia if donald trump did indeed get putin to agree to article five that
00:16:48.720
means the peace is guaranteed by us you know this last five years and then all of a sudden there's
00:16:56.640
war we have this article five hanging around our necks i'm not thrilled about that but that is a huge
00:17:04.000
concession that everyone should recognize if if putin gave that up that's enormous enormous
00:17:13.320
here's my guess on what donald trump has he's given he said you have to accept an article five
00:17:20.740
i'm going to try to convince them to say crimea is over okay and and you know except for israel
00:17:29.500
this is the way the world works you win something in war and they take it and then it's yours it's
00:17:37.000
yours the winner gets that land only the united states has given the land back that we have
00:17:43.560
conquered because we're not a conquering nation russia is a conquering nation okay they won that
00:17:51.580
in the war barack obama did nothing that's over was it mistake yes you want to complain don't complain
00:17:59.080
to donald trump call barack obama so i think that's off the table and the dunbas uh area uh the dunbas
00:18:08.900
area is right now and if you listen to them what putin has been saying is he wants all of this all the
00:18:16.240
way into crimea or into a kiev he wants all this territory but if you listen to the language now from
00:18:23.960
both sides what putin and zelinski are both saying now which is new is maybe just the occupied territory
00:18:36.000
goes to russia so not anything new not anything in dispute just where they have their troops and
00:18:44.460
it's occupied that's about half of the dunbas reason correct jason yes about half so that's about half
00:18:52.340
which would be the buffer zone that putin has been wanting he wants a buffer zone between nato article 5
00:19:00.160
and uh and russia so you give him that the rest of it goes to ukraine it's a reasonable ending to this
00:19:10.720
thing now we could just go with the press and say that's either too much uh for russia or uh not enough
00:19:21.100
for uh ukraine or you know we have to have all of it back none of those things are going to work
00:19:27.200
which means you're just going to have more and more war do you know that there were 20 000 russians
00:19:34.740
20 000 russians according to the u.s that were killed last month 20 000 people died so if you
00:19:46.740
remember vietnam was what 55 000 people died 55 000 20 last month i don't know i think it might be in
00:19:56.940
the best interest of all of us as humans to end this war if we can come up with a reasonable thing
00:20:03.380
that both sides agreed to but both sides are going to have to give stuff up
00:20:06.840
pray for peace pray for peace this is the closest we've been on this one for a while all right let me
00:20:14.860
tell you about our sponsor uh then we'll come back more on this i mean this is pretty much what
00:20:19.720
we're going to be talking about uh all day today let me tell you about rough greens unfortunately dogs
00:20:24.560
especially as they start to get older are far more susceptible to cancer than we are one of the
00:20:29.160
biggest reasons is this stuff we're putting in their bowls you know our dogs were healthier when
00:20:34.640
they would eat table scraps i find that hard to believe but it's true they were healthier when
00:20:39.860
we would feed them what what we were eating um now we give them this dog food that has been
00:20:46.540
packaged uh it has been processed it's been cooked it's such high temperature so it can last on a shelf
00:20:52.920
for two years and it's not healthy for you you would never feed that to your child ever you wouldn't feed
00:20:58.700
it to yourself you wouldn't feed that to somebody you don't like why would you feed that to your dog
00:21:04.360
it's dead what you have to do the basic is put all of the live nutrients back in that have been
00:21:11.700
lost through the high heat processing you need the natural enzymes the vitamins uh you need the
00:21:17.720
probiotics rough greens is not a dog food it's that bridge that helps take and put everything in that
00:21:24.520
has been cooked out of all of your dog's food get a free jump start trial bag for your dog today it's a
00:21:29.780
20 value you'll get you'll get it for free you just cover the shipping i'm telling you you'll see
00:21:34.660
a huge difference in your dog at least i did stew did pat did everybody i know who's tried rough greens
00:21:39.780
with their dog they swear by it because you'll see a difference in the energy and really the clear
00:21:45.300
eyes and the coat and everything else roughgreens.com promo code beck r-u-f-f-greens.com promo code beck
00:21:53.620
four right now cut four here's cut four listen critics of president trump will say the pomp and
00:22:11.600
circumstances the pomp and circumstance the red carpet the warm handshake that president trump
00:22:18.420
simply lost that that putin gained there just by being on the world stage and walking down a red
00:22:24.700
carpet with the president your reaction to that well i mean critics of president trump are always
00:22:29.860
going to find something to criticize you don't pay attention to it anymore but i will tell you this
00:22:33.300
putin is already on the world stage he's already on the world stage the guy's conducting a full-scale
00:22:38.280
war in ukraine he's already on the world stage he has the world's largest tactical nuclear arsenal in
00:22:43.120
the world and the second largest strategic nuclear arsenal in the world he's already on the world stage
00:22:47.940
when i hear people say that oh it elevates him well we all we do is talk about putin all the time all
00:22:52.800
the media's done is talk about putin all the time for the last four or five years that doesn't mean
00:22:56.640
he's right about the war that doesn't mean he's justified about the war put all that aside it means
00:23:00.840
you're not going to have a peace agreement without between russia and ukraine you're not going to end
00:23:04.920
a war between russia and ukraine without dealing with putin that's not that's just common sense i
00:23:11.100
shouldn't have to say it so people can say whatever they want ultimately at the end of the day
00:23:15.660
we have to get the russian side to agree to things that they don't want to agree to if we're
00:23:20.180
going to have peace if not they'll just be a war they'll keep killing each other and life will go on
00:23:24.280
in america and in the rest of the world but not for ukraine can i tell you something uh we're going
00:23:29.600
to continue our conversation a minute but when did little marco become this guy he is doing an
00:23:38.000

00:25:16.360
welcome to the glenn back program this is a really hard road to navigate because uh i am not a putin
00:25:38.180
apologist i think putin is a an absolutely evil guy no ifs ands or buts i think he's a guy who
00:25:45.940
looks at the cold war and says well that ended the wrong way i mean he has said those words um he believes
00:25:52.860
in you know the former soviet state um he is a dictator he is bloodthirsty he is a killer um so i want
00:26:02.580
to make sure that everything that needs to be said about vladimir putin uh is said because he is you
00:26:10.620
know is a rattlesnake a good pet the answer is no that's what everybody says the actual answer is
00:26:21.140
yes as long as you never forget it's a rattlesnake the minute you start treating it as a pet like a puppy
00:26:29.500
dog you're dead so is putin somebody you can negotiate with yes as long as you always remember
00:26:38.740
he's vladimir putin um but i think well jason give me your view on vladimir putin and and this
00:26:48.820
whole situation vladimir putin i i believe is i mean i i agree with you i think that it's very rare
00:26:54.980
uh in the world to have someone that sees the interests of their country and they're willing
00:27:00.220
to take certain steps to ensure that their country is taken care of and what i mean by that is willing
00:27:08.220
to just invade a country over it um willing to you know be a bloodthirsty killer over it that that's rare
00:27:15.220
it's even more rare to have the cartoon villain as a leader like kim jong-un kim jong-un is a total
00:27:23.920
cartoon character yes um it's also very rare for a country to ignore geopolitical laws and rules
00:27:30.640
like a hitler and go off and just try and you know conquer an entire continent that is also very rare
00:27:36.720
most of the people fall in line of someone like uh i don't know uh not sure that the type of leader
00:27:44.160
basically pick 90 of the leaders out there they're willing to go so far putin is willing to go those
00:27:50.200
extra few steps but he's not a cartoon character so what you can always expect from vladimir putin
00:27:55.280
is he is willing to do the things to ensure the safety of his country from what and him and him
00:28:02.100
which is also a dictatorial regime the regime correct willing to correct so that that's you there's ways
00:28:09.240
that you can predict how this is going to go based off of those rules so that's always when you're when
00:28:14.880
you're looking at this how do you think this is going to go what do you think we end up with if
00:28:21.220
anything so i i think that um vladimir putin initially wanted to take all of ukraine because
00:28:26.940
that solved most of their issues yes that that keeps nato out that keeps if you look at a map
00:28:32.100
you know that the border of ukraine and russia is just a couple hundred miles from moscow so for us
00:28:37.760
in our own perspective that's like accepting nuclear weapons in havana no it's not even that
00:28:43.740
it's like new jersey exactly right right so it was a geopolitical you know paramount for him to take
00:28:50.620
ukraine he failed at that so now what he's looking at i need some kind of buffer so armies can't go
00:28:57.620
through ukraine nato armies can't go through ukraine and get to moscow in an hour he's got to do that so
00:29:03.240
what he's building here i think is that now he's established a buffer now what he's looking for
00:29:09.200
is an excuse to give to his people look he'll say the special military operation that's what he loves
00:29:14.580
to call it it succeeded we have our buffer zone i can claim victory for you his people now what the
00:29:21.760
he also has to leave open for the europeans and for ukraine is a way to also say we won we stopped
00:29:28.680
him he did not take ukraine if both sides can do that and i think we're getting hints that we're
00:29:34.040
getting close to that the article 5 like yes uh security if it's real if it's real that's big yes
00:29:40.560
zelinski saying uh you can't have territory that you haven't already conquered as you pointed out yes
00:29:46.420
that's an interesting hint that means that he might be willing to accept crimea going their way
00:29:50.940
and other those areas providing that buffer zone and there's a new pullout that shows from ukraine
00:29:56.540
that uh the ukrainians uh don't want to give any land back but stew who is so good at reading polls
00:30:03.820
that's not exactly what it says is it yeah the poll actually is they don't want to give up more land
00:30:11.160
that has already been occupied that's where the 78 percent comes in and i think that's going to be a
00:30:17.240
problem because i mean putin seems to want additional land including like these two cities that are
00:30:23.400
you know central to the defense of ukraine so that that is going to be a real problem in the
00:30:28.420
negotiations whether they don't think so if if they're not occupied that i think that's where
00:30:35.640
trump is trying to push them i agree keep the land you already have occupied i think that's where trump
00:30:42.880
is trying to push him i think and i think that's where the people is i right i think the ukraine i think
00:30:49.400
ukraine would you know a lot of different parts of this negotiation have to go a specific way but
00:30:57.080
i think there's i think there's a world in which ukraine accepts that um the problem is at least
00:31:01.560
at this point uh russia seems to be asking for more than that they seem to be asking for multiple
00:31:06.320
cities and areas that they do not currently occupy um they want that entire donbass region which
00:31:12.500
would include i don't think that's reasonable i agree and that's that that's absolutely what putin
00:31:16.980
wants if you look at a map he's he wants the area from belt right where you see belarus and ukraine
00:31:21.980
connect yeah he would love to have that area all the way down the coast of crimea because that's the
00:31:27.520
full buffer zone that's what he's going to push for it right but i don't think that's reasonable to
00:31:33.220
add that's where marco rubio's like everybody's going to have to give up something and you know i think
00:31:38.140
if ukraine can live with they conquered this land they're in this land um and just we're just drawing a
00:31:46.260
line there i think putin should be willing to accept that it's not what he wants but he would
00:31:55.260
be willing to accept that because it does give him the buffer zone does it not if he just keeps the
00:32:00.580
conquered land that he has now yes it's not the full buffer zone that he would like but it is a buffer
00:32:05.540
yeah nobody is going to get everything that they want um and i think the polling shows that that is
00:32:12.480
seemingly acceptable to the ukrainian people that if you don't if you're occupying it right now you
00:32:21.200
got to keep that we'll we can live with that um and then uh ukraine gets the article 5 which is all
00:32:30.820
they is what they said that's what started this whole thing they wanted protection from russia
00:32:36.280
and they wanted to join nato the reason why they wanted to join nato is because they wanted the
00:32:40.840
article 5 protection if russia comes in then that triggers nato to come in and fight the war against
00:32:48.760
russia that keeps them at bay so ukraine at a very high cost gets that russia at a very high cost gets
00:32:58.060
most of what they want in the in the buffer zone that's a reasonable ending right agree or disagree
00:33:06.040
no no i i agree and it also sets i mean and this is far from over so let's say there's some
00:33:10.860
guarantees that last for five ten whatever years how many ever years both sides are going to be
00:33:15.220
looking to play the chinese perspective on this and i say chinese perspective because if you look at
00:33:19.240
how they treated taiwan the chinese reluctantly gave up taiwan and we were involved providing security
00:33:25.620
guarantees correct providing weapons things like that that's what how both both sides have to be
00:33:31.060
looking to play the long game you give this up you make concessions now and the long run
00:33:36.020
the discussion is still open things may happen you can do play your little games all that you can
00:33:41.700
look towards maybe taking that back that land in some way in the future but this is what you accept
00:33:47.740
now and set up this game of chess for for longer and now at least you're not losing 1.5 million people
00:33:53.840
still um first of all i have two things first uh can we ask uh a question do are you guys
00:34:01.740
do you guys believe are you confident in the idea that vladimir putin has accepted
00:34:08.860
this uh pseudo article 5 opposition i just i have not heard him say that until i hear i because i've
00:34:17.220
heard trump officials say it but i am skeptical that he's actually agreed to this i i just haven't
00:34:23.120
heard him until i heard him until i hear him say it so when i played could you play that trump uh
00:34:28.560
sound that we played uh cut three listen to what he says we had a very productive meeting there were
00:34:34.340
many many points that we agreed on most of them i would say a couple of big ones that we haven't quite
00:34:41.900
gotten there but we've made some stop i think that's the article 5 thing we've we've made a lot
00:34:48.920
of headway we have some things where we've made agreements and then we really made some headway we
00:34:54.040
haven't really gotten there yet i think that's what he's talking about is the article 5 and then
00:35:00.580
one of his spokespeople come out and say it's article 5 we're willing to do the article 5 thing
00:35:08.220
because that's trump speaking it into existence he didn't say it with vladimir putin standing next
00:35:15.220
to him because they're still working on it and i'm sure vladimir putin or somebody else is going no
00:35:20.280
i'm not really sure about that um and uh and so he has one of his one of his uh people floated out
00:35:30.120
there to see the reaction and speak it into existence because i think that is if he can get that done if he
00:35:37.240
can get russia to accept that that's enormous enormous yeah i'm of the opinion yeah it would be
00:35:44.200
and i'm of the opinion that putin has agreed to that in some way because putin is very quick to put
00:35:50.380
these things down especially to his own people especially if he thinks that he's going to lose
00:35:54.560
public opinion within russia with ordinary russians and he has not done that yet so that's a huge signal
00:36:00.300
to me plus i think that i personally think that a line from donald trump is about territorial
00:36:05.560
concessions i think that is the major sticking point on this and that's what he's gonna have to
00:36:09.780
go back and forth with the europeans today and zelinski on what are you willing to concede
00:36:14.300
territorially because that's what you know enough about where everybody's going to come down i mean
00:36:20.460
i'm sure maloney is going to come down with trump uh germany probably will come down with trump
00:36:28.100
no probably not it's it's very hard to predict on the european side because they have more skin in
00:36:34.600
the game i know on this it's very different argument with but you get if you can get the article five
00:36:40.400
that's what they've been wanting yeah so i mean that that i mean that is such a huge concession
00:36:46.940
you know it's weird because you know what the press is going to say if if he gives up land and we have
00:36:54.480
the article five um and he gets that deal done the press is going to call him hitler and neville
00:37:02.600
chamberlain at the same time i don't know how you that works but yeah it's hitler and neville
00:37:09.240
chamberlain how but they will make that case back in just a second let me tell you about good ranchers
00:37:14.840
every time you fire up the grill you're making a choice uh you're making a choice that where you can
00:37:19.380
either support the billions of pounds of foreign meat that is coming into this country meat mysteriously
00:37:25.220
stamp product of the u.s uh in fact we should talk to who would that be who runs the uh usda is that
00:37:33.640
is that under uh rfk because that's food safety that that should not be that you should not be able to put
00:37:42.560
that little flag on beef that is coming from elsewhere you shouldn't be able to do it but they do it
00:37:49.020
anyway because it's a loophole uh so you can't trust that that's coming from america and the reason
00:37:55.100
why is a you want to know exactly what's in your beef you want to know that it is 100 born raised and
00:38:01.480
harvested here in the united states um because that is really really important not only because of the
00:38:07.980
quality but also because we have to have these ranchers and farmers why are we so to speak farming
00:38:15.740
this out to other countries it makes no sense we have to have our own food supply so here's what i
00:38:21.740
would like to recommend that you uh that you maybe do go to good ranchers not right now good ranchers.com
00:38:27.620

00:38:33.520

00:39:00.440
well you can lock your doors you can install cameras you can install alarms and motion lights
00:39:15.260
but the most valuable part of your home isn't sitting outside for someone to break into it is
00:39:20.860
sitting inside a database online just waiting to be stolen all cyber criminals need is a few keystrokes
00:39:26.980
to forge your name and transfer your title and suddenly you're fighting to prove that the home
00:39:31.560
you spent your entire life paying for is actually yours and here's the part that catches most people
00:39:37.620
off guard it doesn't matter if you've paid off your mortgage or if you're still sending in that check
00:39:43.200
every month i mean honestly you're more of a target if you've paid off your mortgage to the
00:39:47.000
scammers it's just a piece of paper and to you it's your future it's it's the it's the financial
00:39:52.600
legacy that you've worked your whole life to hopefully hand over one day to your kids but
00:39:58.440
imagine the sickening moment when you find out that someone else has filed a claim against your
00:40:02.400
property i mean it's not just an inconvenience it is a legal nightmare that can drain your savings
00:40:07.060
trash your credit and put your family into limbo while you scramble to untangle everything that's why
00:40:13.040
protecting your home's title isn't about you know being paranoid it's about being smart and it's
00:40:17.720
about recognizing that digital threats are just as real to the guy uh dude you know then the guy's
00:40:22.420
going to break into your garage maybe even more so because the truth is your your home's title isn't
00:40:27.180
locked it is open unless you have home title lock go to home title lock.com home title lock.com
00:40:32.500

00:40:47.720
welcome to the uh glenbeck program so i don't know if you saw this tweet that came out a few hours ago
00:40:57.160
from donald trump it just says bella b-e-l-a now a lot of people are saying i was just you know
00:41:05.980
typo or whatever i don't think because we are indeed members of the press members of the press i don't think
00:41:15.140
we can leave it there i think we need to figure out what exactly he was doing there uh you know
00:41:20.640
what bella what does that what does he mean by that um well i went to work uh early today while
00:41:28.520
you were still asleep uh it's a given name of a hungarian uh composer bella somebody or other
00:41:37.400
bartok i think he's a composer and maybe he was maybe he's making something something about hungary
00:41:42.800
uh and composers i don't know uh it also in some slavic languages bella means white
00:41:50.620
now are we getting a little closer mainstream media uh it's white in the feminine form
00:41:57.900
which look at his wife slavic right feminine maybe he was maybe this was secret code
00:42:08.100
unleash the hounds let her write the letter and send that uh i don't know portuguese it means
00:42:16.560
beautiful now it could also be um maybe he was maybe he was like belated and then he stopped writing
00:42:25.640
and he was like no you know what i'm gonna wait we'll do that later so maybe he's gonna do belated
00:42:30.160
and maybe he was going to mention you know who else is b-l-a b-e-l-a bella lugosi it might have
00:42:38.880
been hey belated condolences on bella lugosi's death and he just decided you know i'm just gonna
00:42:44.860
put b-e-l-a on there and everybody will figure it out i'm just i'm just saying uh where's the press
00:42:51.560
on this one where's the press on this one uh stew can we go back to that uh poll that you had just a
00:42:59.160
a few minutes ago um sure where do they stand on crimea where do the people in ukraine stand on
00:43:05.720
that uh well i mean they are the people of ukraine are not excited about trans of anything making
00:43:12.940
anything official right like they like so the poll shows that it okay what we were talking about before
00:43:19.080
the idea that russia would get lands they don't currently even occupy right that's what's what
00:43:24.120
putin wants the ukrainian people overwhelmingly opposed to that 78 to 15 when it when it opens
00:43:30.980
up to what they do occupy which would include crimea and include these other regions um the lines
00:43:37.040
of the war right now official occupation they are overwhelmingly still against though less so 68 to 24
00:43:44.440
so they oppose uh officially recognizing russia has these territories when it comes down to whether
00:43:51.300
they're okay with it de facto like not admitting that it's happened but it kind of like the way
00:43:56.320
crimea is right now essentially where russia runs it but they don't necessarily admit it that they're
00:44:02.320
pretty split on it's 48 43 that seems to be the line where they are at least as far as the people
00:44:07.580
that's a big nuance on that and would putin accept a non-official agreement back let me tell you a little
00:44:15.440
bit about ammo square you remember the great ammo shortage of 2020 you go to stores all over the place
00:44:21.020
and uh the ammo shelves were pretty much bare there was nothing there i remember that uh even the
00:44:25.680
online options were wiped out still you remember that oh my gosh yeah you i mean i remember going
00:44:31.140
into major like gun stores and there would just be nothing i mean there was like you know just
00:44:35.120
smatterings of things that you didn't need it was impossible to get for a while it's a little bit
00:44:39.580
better now but you can't just depend on that you can't depend that it's always going to be
00:44:43.820
there when you need it you actually remember that i'm shocked really you're the most unprepared guy
00:44:52.020
i've ever seen in my life ammo square is a company that can really help you stock up on the ammo because
00:44:57.660
the stew is right i ain't saying that yeah um and they can help you stock up over a hundred thousand
00:45:03.520
members stockpile ammo automatically since 2015 i'm one of them you just sign up pick your choice of
00:45:10.860
ammo from over uh 70 different calibers you set an auto buy budget and then they collect it and they
00:45:17.140
ship it to you when you're ready to have it shipped to you go right now and check it out it's ammo

00:49:02.260
i was i was thinking about this and doing some research on when has any country uh been asked to
00:49:13.640
give land up that it won in a war um and you can say that it was you know their fault and everything
00:49:23.300
else but you want to make sure that you're very careful on punishment for those those uh transgressions
00:49:29.920
remember uh the aggressor really bad aggressor in world war one was germany and the world decided to
00:49:37.660
punish germany and germans didn't like it and uh that led right directly to world war ii i think
00:49:45.260
without the versailles treaty uh being done the way it was done we would have we wouldn't have had
00:49:51.400
world war ii we may not have ever seen hitler rise to power it'd be a good thing but you also have to
00:49:57.400
set a standard in saying hey bad guys you don't win when you do these things so this is a really
00:50:02.660
tough balance but there's only one country in particular in the history of the world that has
00:50:09.180
has faced uh this burden where the whole world is turning on saying you got to give this back
00:50:13.960
back in 1967 it was uh israel they were surrounded encircled and threatened with destruction by every
00:50:22.460
single neighbor every country in the region decided together they were going to attack on multiple
00:50:30.500
fronts now their intention was to wipe israel off the face of the earth but israel not only survived
00:50:37.740
it turned the tide in six days it gained territory so dramatically that the map of the middle east had
00:50:45.260
to be withdrawn dramatically they occupied huge swaths of territory in jordan and in egypt all over the
00:50:55.980
middle east all of a sudden they had all this territory and then something extraordinary happened
00:51:01.680
they said and you don't see this and russia listen carefully to this you don't see this very often
00:51:08.560
they said we don't want all this territory we want to be left alone and we really just want uh a few
00:51:17.480
buffer zones we don't need all of this land in jordan we don't need all of this land in egypt we just
00:51:24.560
want to make sure that this can't happen to us again well that's what russia is saying now whether
00:51:31.900
that's true with vladimir putin or not that's up for you to decide but what they're saying is they want
00:51:37.780
just a buffer zone away from uh nato and what ukraine is saying is we want to be part of nato because we
00:51:46.900
don't trust russia nor should they so we don't we want to uh have uh we want nato partnership basically
00:51:54.680
what they want is if russia attacks us then all of nato europe and america need to go in and fight that war
00:52:02.640
with them that's what they really want well donald trump his uh his allies came out this weekend and said
00:52:09.340
they are very close to an article 5 kind of agreement article 5 comes from uh the nato uh
00:52:17.380
charter which means it was for europe against russia anybody who attacks a nato country it's an attack
00:52:25.820
on all of us and we all band together now does does that happen well kind of it did after 9-11 not
00:52:34.160
everybody was involved but it wasn't you know it wasn't like it was intended to be but that's fine
00:52:40.260
um that's what that's what ukraine wants what russia says they want whether it's true or not i don't know
00:52:48.580
but what they say they want is a buffer zone if if russia can give up and look instead
00:52:56.080
at the israeli example of voluntarily they gave most of it back uh the sinai gaza and parts of the west
00:53:07.140
bank um they they wanted to keep as part of a buffer zone but they were in there um because it was a
00:53:17.240
buffer zone to them okay but land four times its own size paid for in blood
00:53:25.880
on an attack that they didn't do others did to them they gave all of that back in pursuit of peace
00:53:34.460
and they said look we don't we're not here for more land we just want our land and to be left alone
00:53:40.640
and have the right to exist now you've done this to us several times so we want just exactly what
00:53:46.900
you know russia could say we've been attacked by the west over and over again and they come through
00:53:51.460
this door of either poland or now they're worried about ukraine so we want a buffer zone well the
00:53:58.940
world didn't give them that buffer zone it's the disputed territories the occupied territories but
00:54:05.540
that's why israel wanted it and then they gave everything else back a nation smaller than new jersey
00:54:13.160
carved out just this little buffer zone so they had a way to protect themselves in case this would
00:54:21.420
ever happen again now compare this with russia and ukraine crimea was taken in 2014 uh in they invaded
00:54:30.400
ukraine outright in 2022 and they hold huge swaths of land under the occupation so what's the path
00:54:40.120
forward well either continued bloodshed and i just i think it's important that we put this into
00:54:46.240
perspective 20 000 russians according to the u.s 20 000 russians died last month how long did the vietnam
00:54:59.540
war go on that was a total of about 55 000 americans in one month you're almost half of the entire vietnam
00:55:09.860
war there's a lot of bloodshed and a lot of bloodshed that is happening on the other side as
00:55:16.100
well how many have the russians killed month after month after month so to stop this is there something
00:55:23.920
we can look to from 1967 you know a recognition of the reality on the ground and then some hard
00:55:31.760
choices on both sides but anchor it all in peace
00:55:36.380
marco rubio said this weekend and he's right peace demands sacrifice and israel proved that by returning
00:55:47.720
sinai to egypt in exchange for recognition and an end to the hostilities it wasn't perfect it didn't
00:55:54.160
solve every grievance but it worked and egypt and israel haven't gone to war in half a century
00:56:00.940
again it's messy it's ugly but we haven't had a war between egypt and israel in uh half a century
00:56:11.080
survival outweighs pride and here's the challenge for russia and ukraine both claim history in that deep
00:56:20.640
deep deep history in that area both claim injustice and uh ukraine uh i think you have a much more
00:56:29.820
solid claim on injustice against the russians than they do the other way um but the question is not
00:56:37.920
who's parchment who owns this land who has the oldest deed here the question is are you willing
00:56:43.300
to trade land for more lives are you willing to give back or give up enough to stop the killing and
00:56:51.520
that's not just on the ukraine side that is also on the russian side no other country has done what
00:56:58.680
israel does nobody no there's no example uh like this no other modern country has been attacked by
00:57:05.420
multiple neighbors survived expanded and then voluntarily gave all that land back and then
00:57:13.240
is still being judged for not giving all of it back and the closest comparison is probably from
00:57:18.660
1971 india uh took some land from pakistan in a war and then they gave it back after world war ii
00:57:27.240
we didn't occupy we gave the land back but neither one of those examples have the double standards that
00:57:35.220
israel has to live through but if russia and ukraine are serious about ending the war
00:57:40.960
they might want to look to sinai they might want to look back because that's the model not endless
00:57:47.080
battles not shifting borders by force but the humility to give back what you can and the wisdom to keep
00:57:55.620
only that in what you have to have for your own security and then russia has to do that and ukraine
00:58:06.240
has to be willing to swallow that they have lost some of these things but it's in trade for their security
00:58:13.580
and if donald trump can get russia to accept an article five like uh security agreement
00:58:21.540
that in and of itself is miraculous and we could actually all go home and say
00:58:28.860
well avoided nuclear war on that because remember where we were remember in 2022
00:58:36.500
joe biden was saying this is nuclear war if these things happen this will be nuclear war
00:58:44.420
remember how freaked out we all were we're like wait a minute wait a minute nobody's been talking
00:58:47.980
about nuclear war you know in 50 years what do you what do you mean nuclear war
00:58:52.320
we could avoid that i don't know who you voted for nor do i care
00:59:00.820
i i would hope that we are all praying for cooler heads to prevail um because this one now comes down to
00:59:13.980
how many more innocent lives that are not involved in this who are being drafted on both sides
00:59:21.040
being forced to fight this war uh on both sides how many more people are we going to kill
00:59:28.260
or allow being killed because of of because of what because of pride
00:59:34.100
i don't want to see putin rewarded for anything that he did nothing but war is war you know you don't
00:59:45.760
you know and if you're willing to continue to fight but ukraine's not going to be able to win
00:59:50.620
this war against ukraine i mean against russia would you agree with that jason jason buttrail is with us
00:59:55.520
would you agree they're not they're not able to fight unless we all get involved in its world war
01:00:00.100
that's the thing depending on how many people get pushed into this there there's some crazy
01:00:06.460
developments in this war technological advances ukraine or um drone warfare has escalated
01:00:13.680
out the roof on this i mean have you seen that some of the videos coming from and the crazy thing
01:00:20.300
is ukraine is actually leading i think in just ingenuity as far as like drone warfare but you can
01:00:26.620
watch videos on on on x right now that show some of these first person you know drones chasing down
01:00:33.260
russian soldiers across the battlefield and it's it's going back and forth i don't to answer your
01:00:38.280
question though more specifically no i it's basically a war of you know attrition and numbers
01:00:43.060
um the russians have more and the only way that ukraine can effectively over time win is if we get
01:00:49.200
involved other nato countries get involved that's where things spin out of control and here's a here's
01:00:53.840
another thing while we're talking about new technology you know let me go back to the b2 bomber flying over
01:00:59.520
uh donald trump and putin and everybody in the media was like he's on the red carpet and he saluted
01:01:06.760
him with you know a flyover no no that was intimidation that was clearly intimidation what was the message
01:01:13.520
why why did he say fly the b2 bomber back in 1940 jack northrup uh dreams up the flying wing and it's it's
01:01:26.720
radical it has no tail um it was the yb 49 and it was really futuristic now the germans were working
01:01:35.100
on the flying wing as well um but nobody could get it uh to stabilize um and you know the testing they
01:01:43.500
killed it by 1950 because they just couldn't get it stabilized now fast forward to the 1980s
01:01:48.800
under ronald reagan doing the same thing remember this bomber came out in the 1980s what else was
01:01:57.180
happening in the 1980s it was ronald reagan meeting with the leader of uh of russia and gorbachev
01:02:06.380
and ronald reagan was playing the heavy it's an evil empire and we're gonna end it and everybody's like
01:02:11.800
he's gonna get us in a nuclear war and he's like would you calm down i'm i have a strategy here
01:02:16.280
back in the 1980s when that was going on all of a sudden uh northrop grumman the the aerospace
01:02:26.600
company they came up with a b2 now it was first flown for people to see in 1989 but we had it before
01:02:37.360
then okay those things were always out before it's a it's a ufo there's just like this flying wing
01:02:43.100
flying well why was this such a big deal no one has been able to make a flying wing except us okay
01:02:53.720
it's precision it can drop those bombs in iran and it can hit a bomb 50 000 feet it can drop a bomb
01:03:02.900
and it will drop a bomb and hit the top of a pepsi can
01:03:06.780
that's remarkable precision okay um and it's unseen with radar it's untouchable but here's the
01:03:17.200
thing it was a message to putin we dreamed it up in the 40s we perfected it in the 80s and still
01:03:25.480
in 2025 nothing comes close this is this is who we are putin's radars didn't even blink but i can tell
01:03:36.300
you he felt the shadow of that wing this is why that flyover was such a big deal it is a perf it was
01:03:42.860
absolute proof america is in the leadership role again we don't just lead we dominate from the vision
01:03:50.820
to the victory sleep tight world the b2 is watching and america is leading again that was the message
01:04:01.400

oh yeah so what time uh stew do you have the uh this is so unfair stew do you have the president's
01:05:22.180
schedule handy you just rattle off what time all this starts i thought i haven't seen this
01:05:27.320
today is when i thought i heard the meeting was supposed to start obviously that could be
01:05:32.480
could be moved and who knows there's so many things with all these different leaders coming in and all
01:05:37.840
of that but that is the uh that's what they were talking about for today zelinski has come out and
01:05:43.280
said this is a historic decision the united states is ready to take part in security guarantees for
01:05:47.900
ukraine security guarantees as a result of our joint work must really be very practical delivering
01:05:52.920
on protection on land in the air and in the sea and must be developed with europe's participation
01:05:58.900
since the territorial issue is so important it should be discussed only by the leaders of ukraine
01:06:04.560
and russia at the trilateral of ukraine united states and russia so far russia gives no sign that
01:06:11.340
trilateral will happen and if russia refuses the new sanctions must follow so that's zelinski's uh
01:06:18.120
latest and i don't know why i mean trump is obviously you know remember when was the last time that
01:06:25.860
the president met with uh uh putin in a way like this as president u.s president without being a u.n
01:06:35.340
sponsored event 2007 2007 so he's been pretty much ignoring us since then showing no deference to
01:06:44.580
the united states we were png to them absolutely png person not grata um and so uh he is um he's now
01:06:53.560
showing deference but now trump has to get the three of them to the table uh
01:07:00.840
is that is that absolutely necessary jason do you think get all of them together the three of them
01:07:09.040
sure yeah absolutely to sign a some sort of a deal yes i can't imagine that happening i cannot imagine
01:07:16.280
that happening but we should know a little more by the end of the day all right more in just a second

welcome to the glennbeck program well looking at the president's schedule uh it looks like uh he's
01:09:13.360
going to be a little busy today um he's got uh some photos he's got to take around two o'clock in the
01:09:21.100
afternoon it sounds like biden's schedule uh he first meets with uh zelinski i think at one for
01:09:27.740
one-on-one bilateral talks then he's going in and he greets the leaders in the state dining room and
01:09:35.100
then i think he takes some pictures with their families etc etc and then they go into serious
01:09:40.060
meetings about that around three o'clock in the afternoon of course you'll get all of it covered
01:09:44.060
on msnbc uh later later today oh well i don't know if it'll be covered on msnbc i guess today
01:09:51.020
that might be true that might be true but soon it will no longer be true glenn uh msnbc is changing its
01:09:57.360
name they're changing their name that american institution of msnbc and it's jarring to lose
01:10:07.820
that close working relationship which is how it started between microsoft and nbc right ms for
01:10:15.460
microsoft and nbc yes um and microsoft has been out of this for a long time haven't they yes they've
01:10:22.280
been out of it for a long time but they kept the ms in there why i that i don't know i don't i can't
01:10:27.800
explain many of the things they do yeah right okay all right okay i think i think most people would be
01:10:33.000
you know that wouldn't remember it would be shocked to realize that microsoft was once a big
01:10:38.200
part of this it was supposed to be i think it was the first embrace of digital at that level right
01:10:45.100
like it was a big deal at that time didn't last and there's nothing there's nothing that says
01:10:49.500
credibility more than uh the mainstream media and bill gates right uh when you put those two things
01:10:56.320
together you know you got something special you really do so you know so is nbc suing msnbc
01:11:02.980
like no we even can't have our name on that they're spinning them off so nbc is spinning off
01:11:07.880
msnbc into its own separate company they are apparently hiring right now because they're losing
01:11:12.840
access to the nbc news uh room so they need to hire a whole new batch of horrible journalists that
01:11:19.620
that make a mockery of the profession to bring over there when does this when does this happen when
01:11:24.540
does this go through the official change i don't know this is the first date they're announcing
01:11:29.600
the new name let's see if i can find when that actually happens new name it launched by the way
01:11:35.740
in 1996 in case uh you were wondering how long this thing's been around it seems like it's been
01:11:41.240
it was 1896 or 1796 but um so uh i don't actually had some credibility at the very beginning
01:11:49.220
yeah i think lester holt started on msnbc uh and back in the 90s it was seen and it was still
01:11:56.680
left-leaning but almost it's left-leaning the way you'd expect every other correct piece of crap you
01:12:02.680
know mainstream broadcast it was like cnn like it was like left-leaning but not necessarily
01:12:08.740
completely insane now both of them since then have gone completely insane and you know they went
01:12:13.060
through the keith olberman period and i mean they've gone so far off the rails obviously at this point
01:12:18.580
but we know that the new name is do you want to do you want to guess do you do you have any idea
01:12:22.860
have you seen it is crap can yes crap can news you're right no that's cn that's ccn it might be
01:12:30.060
yeah different one might be too confusing so all right go ahead what is it it is ms now
01:12:37.660
so let me see if i have this right ms hasn't been a part of msnbc since the turn of the century
01:12:52.100
years and years and years yeah right yeah but they're going to keep the ms part right
01:12:57.740
and the n and the n and the n they're only changing two letters that's what it is they're like we can
01:13:03.800
just we just cut those two letters out of everything and just put ow there instead of bc
01:13:09.880
now other than the fact that ms now sounds like a plea for multiple sclerosis do you
01:13:26.400
as as to what this actually stands for it's each letter stands for something stands for it's an
01:13:38.940
you're skipping ms but yes news news is correct you got that right so that one's right so you got to get
01:13:47.840
the ms too it's not microsoft i have no idea do you want me to tell you what it is i i do because i think
01:13:55.260
it's going to be highly entertaining yeah my source
01:14:06.720
so we have do they have cavemen working at their
01:14:27.660
i mean the i will say the iq level is about there yeah my source news opinion and world
01:14:36.620
yes now you're a guy who's who's done this right you've you the blaze you came up with the name of
01:14:45.340
that gbtv before the torch the torch coming soon to a to you uh you also have uh many uh radio stations
01:14:53.800
that you programmed back in the day where you would look at yes what they were presenting and
01:14:58.300
so if you're looking at all that as an expert in this field
01:15:01.120
how would you grade this this rebrand for msnbc
01:15:14.840
or negative numbers that is the worst rebranding i've ever heard
01:15:19.100
yeah it's really bad just start fresh from the very beginning come up with something good
01:15:23.640
yeah but they're trying to obviously bridge that gap to hey this is what we've always been so you get
01:15:30.500
the logo so it's going to be so wait wait wait wait so it's not ms now it's it's good they're going
01:15:35.900
to call it msnow i think they're going to call it ms now i think they're trying to keep the ms
01:15:43.420
as something you know again that only people think of multiple sclerosis nobody thinks nobody
01:15:50.300
thinks of microsoft nobody thinks think of multiple sclerosis they don't want anybody to think of
01:15:55.360
microsoft they haven't been involved in it forever the only thing rather they'd rather have
01:16:00.320
you think of a debilitating disease yes than microsoft that is that is better than their
01:16:05.900
reputation yeah um it is the other thing you could look at it if you wanted to they could go the
01:16:11.140
feminist direction and call it ms now oh my gosh that could be something they can try oh my gosh is
01:16:20.880
that that sounds like something they would love because it indicates to me it's an absolute
01:16:28.200
guaranteed flaming just ball of death as it hits this as it hits the ground ms now that just sounds
01:16:41.160
like something that like yeah we should do that we should do that message no you're going to crash
01:16:45.420
this plane into the side of the mountain it's going to be a fiery ball of wreckage it's not good
01:16:50.060
to be clear the plane has only been flying like two feet off the ground for many many years but
01:16:55.060
yes they might actually crash it this time i could see ms now actually being the way they go which would
01:17:01.260
be even more uh comical though that would require them i think in theory to define what a woman is
01:17:07.180
if they went with ms now no that might not work either got so yeah this is a tough one
01:17:13.600
and when is this happening i think i have not seen the exact date it is supposed to be soon the
01:17:21.920
spinoff was announced last winter they initially said they would be keeping its name but then during
01:17:28.680
the transitional period they decided that uh they needed a new separate identity so can i ask you why
01:17:36.200
why who's making these decisions in hiring nbc is nbc like you know what we're going to uh staff and
01:17:45.880
design our competitor yeah kind of i mean because it does why would you do that one of the statements
01:17:51.960
i saw said nbc universal decided so i i guess because they haven't fully spun off yet they actually
01:17:59.840
are making these decisions maybe they have a bet so they're just spinning it off but they're keeping
01:18:04.900
are they are they keeping it in the universal comcast world i don't think so it's a separate
01:18:10.480
company i think it's going to be sold separate separate company why wouldn't you just sell the
01:18:14.620
position why wouldn't you just sell the cable access you know like current did remember when current
01:18:21.080
sold it to right they couldn't sell that they wouldn't sell al gore would not sell current tv
01:18:27.260
to glenn beck because i was so un-american in his own words that he sold it to al jazeera right
01:18:34.980
i remember this you know the company that bought it with oil money from al gore so that made a lot of
01:18:45.840
sense to him so uh why wouldn't why wouldn't they just sell that position why wouldn't they just go it's
01:18:51.860
up for sale why would you buy something that nbc created that i mean so wait a minute you hired
01:19:00.420
everybody but you hired them because you could you wouldn't give anybody on nbc a role there so you
01:19:07.340
were like why would you have hired you find anybody good you'd be like yeah save those guys for nbc
01:19:12.260
this guy belongs at ms now that's what we're calling it from here on out stew that's good
01:19:19.480
ms now ms now ms now is just too good now remember too at one point elon musk uh contemplated the
01:19:28.160
potential purchase of msnbc said smarter than that yeah why would you want a cable news company
01:19:34.460
what is he in a time machine he got back into a time machine you know i'd like to i'd like to do
01:19:40.680
that and i'd like a printing press too that's a fair point i i just i will say that and the color
01:19:48.400
scheme and like the the logo is really basic it looks terrible honestly and uh this is going to go
01:19:57.420
i think poorly glenn poorly that's saying something when msnbc is designing something that you think
01:20:06.720
might be worse than msnbc shocking but maybe you could do it you know if you put your mind to it
01:20:14.520
you can you can accomplish anything glenn including making mbc msnbc even worse i mean that's like if
01:20:20.300
we designed it honestly it would be like okay all right let's hire a bunch of lefties we're gonna call
01:20:26.060
it ms now we're gonna we're gonna lead with oh my gosh look at that uh we're gonna we're gonna lead
01:20:34.760
with uh guy cheerleaders and communism uh it's gonna be big i mean that sounds like something i would
01:20:44.060
design for them to either make fun of them or just to be you know let's see if we can do you remember
01:20:51.240
when i told you i went to that opera called the nose i took my daughter to the opera she loved opera
01:20:56.780
and and it was honestly it was i don't even know what the story was but it was the main character
01:21:03.680
was a nose so it's a giant nose with feet coming out of the nostrils and i said at the time i said
01:21:12.680
this has to be this was written by somebody who was like you know these opera snobs i'm gonna write
01:21:18.520
this whole thing it makes no sense it's awful but i'm gonna say oh no you just don't get it you
01:21:23.960
don't get the nose with the feet coming out you don't get it well i guess so and they sold it just
01:21:30.600
because opera snobs didn't want to say i don't get it okay you had to get it or you weren't cool uh i
01:21:37.400
think this is what i think this is what might this might be this is just might be a play on like how bad
01:21:42.240
can we make this thing to see if we get these lefties and go you don't get ms now you don't
01:21:48.000
understand that all right well whatever no no i get it i think it's genius in fact i want to pay
01:21:54.660
more for it what a bunch of dopes all right let me let me tell you about my patriot supply the
01:22:00.360
biggest dangers don't always come from where we expect expect sometimes it's a storm that knocks
01:22:04.880
out power for weeks sometimes it's a strike that leaves trucks parked and grocery stores store shelves
01:22:10.440
empty sometimes it's just bad policy that makes everything more expensive than it was yesterday the
01:22:15.360
point is you don't get to choose the crisis but you do get to choose whether your family is ready
01:22:20.380
for it or not my patriot supply has put together emergency food kits that remove the panic from the
01:22:25.680

you ever seen a liberal's hands smoother than a snake on oil guess they're more worried about the
01:23:17.160
meaning of the word retarded than the word work glenn beck we'll be right back
01:23:24.500
uh... well i don't think that uh... the new york times could be uh... you know any more clear than their uh... opinion piece
01:23:52.320
abolish the state electoral college and pack the court
01:24:03.780
uh... well they're there that's a that's a way to go
01:24:06.620
at the same time that they are promoting all of these uh... communists
01:24:12.060
and communist islamists and illegals in our state
01:24:17.320
um... you know the same time they're promoting all of that
01:24:19.900
now they're coming out with uh... they're doing a
01:24:53.040
based on the the right of the people democracy in the case for a new american founding
01:25:06.080
jason you remember that isn't there somebody on the right that's also talking about a new american founding
01:25:15.760
what do you say we go back to the original founding
01:25:53.880
or we could get all that paint off of that thing
01:26:05.940
there's a reason why the average constitution runs for 17 years
01:26:21.300
you check for your bag your shoes your passport phone charger
01:26:24.060
here's a question nobody ever thinks to ask themselves
01:26:45.920
it doesn't matter how close your corner drugstore is
01:26:58.440
it's not just about being prepared in the doomsday sense
01:27:01.120
it's about being the kind of person who thinks ahead
01:27:08.640
and it could even mean just having medication at night
01:27:11.220
until you can get to the doctor the next morning
01:28:27.320
Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:29.820
Well, as the president is getting ready to meet on Ukraine about the Ukraine-Russia peace deal,
01:28:43.360
Yes, the mainstream media has revealed it's all been a grand scheme.
01:28:48.580
And I happen to have the CEO of PragerU here at the ranch.
01:28:55.800
A lot of PragerU people are upstairs because we're filming a bunch of stuff.
01:29:04.000
But we'll talk about that coming up in just a second.
01:29:06.420
And also, the New York Times, here's a great article.
01:29:12.200
And I'm not sure, there's a lot that we have to read into it on, you know,
01:29:18.900
because I'm not sure what they mean when they say, you know, pack the courts.
01:29:23.000
But there's a new article out from the New York Times.
01:29:35.040
It doesn't really sound like America if they do their plan.
01:29:41.300
First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
01:29:44.240
You know, ever notice how suddenly, you know, everybody's suddenly an investing genius?
01:29:50.840
You know, at the family barbecue when somebody's like,
01:29:53.460
crypto's going to the moon, your cousin's all in, you know, on tech stocks.
01:29:57.660
Somebody's uncle is talking about Beanie Babies making a comeback
01:30:00.560
because he's got a closet full of them somewhere.
01:30:03.020
And then when the market starts to actually shake,
01:30:05.240
all these can't-miss strategies suddenly sound like a lot of bad jokes.
01:30:08.840
And the only people laughing are the ones who made sure that part of their money
01:30:14.840
That's something that has been a store of value for thousands of years,
01:30:21.920
They help you have some peace of mind by taking a piece of your savings
01:30:27.220
or even part of your retirement and turning it into real physical metals.
01:30:31.200
Not a trend, not a fad, not Beanie Babies, although that was a very good idea.
01:30:35.100
Just something that you can actually hold on and hold in your hand
01:30:54.860
This is such an amazing story that is coming now from the left
01:31:00.920
and the New York Times on let's change the Constitution.
01:31:08.060
You want to give me a quick – I just lost the story.
01:31:13.120
The title of this, kind of like you hinted, speaks for itself.
01:31:17.460
The title is thus, Abolish the Senate, End the Electoral College,
01:31:25.740
It's a discussion on what – I mean, it's almost like they're doing a 1619 project.
01:31:31.540
But instead of focusing that, now they're just trying to change the history of why the founders created our government the way they did.
01:31:41.060
I mean, the founders pretty much saw government as an evil, a necessary evil,
01:31:46.480
but they did everything in their power to limit it as much as they could.
01:31:49.420
Now, this article, this opinion, whatever this is, seems to argue exactly the opposite.
01:31:55.400
And what's really amazing to me is they actually have the balls to mention things like the Federalist Papers
01:32:01.720
and then turn around and title this thing in the Electoral College.
01:32:05.780
I mean, it's argued specifically not only the need for an Electoral College, but why?
01:32:12.640
So, you know, what's amazing to me is they make several points in this article where they are like the Electoral College,
01:32:19.840
trying to say that it's only a democracy if we have no Electoral College.
01:32:30.640
We are a republic, and democracies fail every single time.
01:32:35.160
There is no such thing as a true democracy where everybody is voting on every item.
01:32:44.940
You have a democracy, and the reason why the left likes it is because you can convince – look at New York.
01:32:52.440
You can convince people of something like communism, and then that's the last election that you will have.
01:33:00.500
The people are voting – they vote in, and they're like, you know what?
01:33:16.380
First of all, you can't vote on every single thing.
01:33:20.400
You can't because you don't know all the ins and outs of everything.
01:33:23.900
So you have to elect somebody that is as close to you as possible, and you elect them first in the House of Representatives.
01:33:34.020
The House of Representatives, the reason why there's only a two-year term on those guys is because that's the closest to you.
01:33:42.400
The Congress is the one that is supposed to control the purse strings, but that's not true anymore.
01:33:48.200
You want to know why our spending is out of control?
01:33:57.100
So they've given that up because they haven't done any budget or anything else, and nobody's holding anybody responsible for the spending.
01:34:04.380
What you're supposed to do is every two years, when they get out of control on spending, you can vote them out and say, nope, don't want any of that.
01:34:17.280
Then the Senate, which the progressives have already changed, and he makes a case in here again in the New York Times editorial, that we haven't done enough to the Senate.
01:34:28.960
In 1913, the progressives under Wilson, they decide they're going to change the Senate from the way it was originally in the Constitution.
01:34:40.200
The way the founders did it was, remember, they want the people, but they also were really concerned about the federal government.
01:34:48.000
So they wanted the states to make sure the states were representative.
01:34:53.040
So everyone knew that Texas is not going to vote for something because New York wants it, and it's not good for Texas.
01:35:04.900
If Texans are elected by the state, and they only represent the state.
01:35:18.680
Why are these people running around, even on our side, all around the country?
01:35:31.180
It's just another higher level, I guess, of Congress.
01:35:38.160
Now we're supposed to have something that protects the individual states.
01:35:42.000
Well, the progressives didn't like that because they need a democracy, and they want an all-powerful federal government.
01:35:53.200
And so they abolished that from the Constitution, and the 17th Amendment changed the way that we vote for senators.
01:36:06.340
They'll fix health care, and then they'll say, and it's so broken now, it's even worse.
01:36:15.160
You guys should not be fixing anything because you don't know your butt from your elbow.
01:36:21.780
Now they're saying that that has to be changed even more because it's not representative.
01:36:32.960
The reason why we have 400, what is it, 434 representatives, it's more than that now, that number changes as our population grows.
01:36:46.220
You get in your area, you'll get more Congress people because it represents the people.
01:36:51.720
The Senate only has two senators from Delaware or California.
01:36:57.920
And this article is saying that's not fair because there's more people in California than there are in Delaware.
01:37:04.220
Well, if you do that, then you completely erase the states.
01:37:08.920
Then Delaware, Wyoming, Idaho, all of these other states that have small populations.
01:37:15.560
The only ones that matter will be California, Texas, New York, Florida.
01:37:24.440
Now, you in Nebraska, do you want New York and California and even Texas making all the decisions for you?
01:37:45.100
They've already undercut the state power one time.
01:37:49.580
Now they want to cut it completely and make it into another representative body of the people.
01:38:04.400
The House of Representatives would be so connected to the people that they would act quickly.
01:38:10.580
And they could do really stupid things because when there's a panic, these elected officials want to move because their constituents are yelling at them.
01:38:19.580
And it wouldn't necessarily be the right thing.
01:38:23.020
So they wanted to balance that with the state power.
01:38:26.740
The state, those senators were elected by the legislators in that state, which I don't love.
01:38:34.100
But it might bring things back into play where we don't care about Chuck Schumer anymore unless you live in New York.
01:38:41.920
You only care about your senator because they were the balance from the public saying, we've got to put the Patriot Act in.
01:38:51.200
No, the Senate should be aligned to say, no, that takes power away from the states and gives an all-consuming federal government all kinds of power to them.
01:39:04.560
And then when those two houses, both the state and the people living in the states, could agree, then it goes to the president.
01:39:14.000
And the president is only supposed to veto when he feels it's unconstitutional.
01:39:20.840
Not because he doesn't like it, not because his party tells him, but because it's unconstitutional.
01:39:29.660
However, Congress can say, Mr. President, I'm sorry, you're wrong, and they can, with three-fourths, they can vote again and pass it in the House with three-fourths, or they can take it to the Supreme Court.
01:39:44.620
And the Supreme Court is only supposed to decide whether it's constitutional.
01:39:50.500
Look at the damage that the left and the progressives have done to this system.
01:40:00.360
The power, they always say when there's a problem, follow the money, right?
01:40:06.500
So they've taken that power to create laws and given it to the executive branch, to the presidential branch.
01:40:20.860
So they have no real power left in them anymore.
01:40:31.160
And then they made the president, they made him into the veto power into whatever his party says.
01:40:40.780
They've completely revamped this thing already.
01:40:49.260
If the president, they can't get it done in the House, they can't get it done in the Senate, and they can't get it done by the president, then they've expanded the power of the Supreme Court.
01:40:59.580
And now the Supreme Court can legislate from the bench.
01:41:14.520
To give you an idea of how weak the Supreme Court was supposed to be, when the designers of the Capitol put together the three branches of government, they didn't include a space for the Supreme Court.
01:41:30.060
You know where the Supreme Court, until FDR, the Supreme Court used to meet in the basement of the Capitol.
01:41:43.980
But FDR wanted to make sure that the Supreme Court could rule the country.
01:41:49.880
And if he couldn't get it passed in the House and the Senate, he'd get it through the Supreme Court.
01:41:58.420
And that's why he tried exactly what this article is saying to do, pack the Supreme Court.
01:42:08.200
That means what we're going to do here is we're just going to load up on Supreme Court justices.
01:42:23.340
But our tradition is there has been nine Supreme Court justices.
01:42:30.120
When you start at, imagine lefties, how would you feel if Donald Trump said, we're going to pack the Supreme Court?
01:42:48.060
Because you know he would pack it with the people that would just agree with him.
01:42:53.320
That's not what the Supreme Court is supposed to do.
01:42:56.600
That's why if Donald Trump said he was going to pack the Supreme Court, I would be against it.
01:43:02.500
And I would be a leading opposition voice of Donald Trump on that if that's what he wanted to do.
01:43:09.540
But you're suggesting that as something that would be good for the country.
01:43:17.500
And by the way, once you pack the Supreme Court, you'll get up.
01:43:21.020
There are some countries that have like 47 Supreme Court justices.
01:43:23.600
They just keep putting them in until they can absolutely control it.
01:43:27.920
Once you pack a Supreme Court, you destroy the country.
01:43:31.820
That is the last gasp of a republic or of a country.
01:43:43.040
And in this op-ed, he's also suggesting that, you know, another thing we should do is we should just add states.
01:44:01.060
When you say we want to, what is the thing they want to reimagine America or re-found America?
01:44:07.900
You're working on something completely different.
01:44:11.200
The under headline on the main headline is why the left can't win.
01:44:15.900
I'm adding my own ellipses here, dot, dot, dot, without a new constitution.
01:44:32.120
They don't like the fact that they almost had us.
01:44:43.640
They made these all just groups that are marching at their orders, teaching and using propaganda and brainwashing techniques to teach these twisted views and then reinforce them in the media.
01:45:06.440
They just keep gobbling and gobbling and gobbling.
01:45:09.560
And the reason why they're now at this point is because we're on to them.
01:45:16.840
The people will always, you know, we will always be late.
01:45:24.560
They're trying to take away all of the escape doors, all of the exit doors.
01:45:29.940
They're trying to lock them all down so you can't get out of this nightmare hell house that they're building for us.
01:45:39.420
You can power through a lot of things in life, work, deadlines, families, responsibilities, even a few aches and pains.
01:45:47.620
But there is one thing you cannot outrun, and that's the lack of sleep.
01:45:51.300
When your body doesn't get the deep, restful sleep it needs, it starts to show up in everything.
01:45:55.780
Your energy drops, your mood sags, and, you know, your focus fractures.
01:46:03.120
That's why the makers of Relief Factor created Z Factor.
01:46:05.820
It's a natural sleep supplement designed to help your body wind down, fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer so you actually wake up feeling rested.
01:46:14.020
It's not about knocking yourself out with harsh chemicals.
01:46:16.700
It's about supporting your body's own sleep cycle so you can drift off naturally and let your body do what it's supposed to do.
01:46:26.480
So wake up feeling like you're ready to face the day, like you've actually slept through the night.
01:46:32.940
Your first-time Z Factor buyer is going to get 46% savings, $19.95 for a 30-day supply.
01:47:02.080
Welcome to Steve Bregeer, otherwise known as Stu, for some reason, an assumed name he's been living under for a whole time,
01:47:10.260
mainly because I think he's a Canadian spy, which everybody used to laugh at.
01:47:20.200
Some would say that I'm hiding my association with you.
01:47:29.620
Ella Emhoff, the stepdaughter of the former Vice President Kamala Harris, took to TikTok on Thursday to express her deep anxiety about climate change.
01:47:44.320
She has a deep, deep fear about the current state of the environment.
01:47:52.160
And she said, the feelings about climate anxiety have made her feel very, very heavy.
01:47:58.740
It could be the cake that also makes you feel heavy.
01:48:01.540
I have not seen a picture of her, so I don't know.
01:48:03.960
But she said, like everyone, I feel disgust at what's going on in the world.
01:48:10.200
Genocide, the loss of lives, the loss of health care, and the general fear that everyone has surrounding affordability, their lives, their livelihood, like everything.
01:48:23.220
I think everything with the environment is really getting to me.
01:48:27.920
And it's the one I experience, a lot of climate anxiety.
01:48:35.840
It's actually a huge tragedy that you feel that way.
01:48:38.980
And I would blame your parents and everybody else in the media and all of your teachers, all the people that you kind of really support for doing this to you.
01:48:50.920
And then you being an adult and not being able to figure out this climate change thing is a scam.
01:49:35.140
The one place that will help you do that is Cozy Earth.
01:49:46.480
Their fabric breathes in a way cotton never could, keeping you cool when you're warm, warm when you're cool and comfortable all night long, all day long.
01:49:54.520
Now, Oprah has said, these are the softest sheets ever.
01:49:58.080
So, I mean, if Oprah likes them, what are you waiting for?
01:50:01.740
Imagine waking up in the morning realizing that you actually slept the night and you were comfortable or wearing clothes that are actually comfortable and keeps you cool.
01:50:12.180
Use the promo code BECK for 40% off the softest spending.
01:50:24.180
In the belly of the beast, I'm sitting here with the CEO of PragerU, which we all know if you watched, you know, CNN or, you know, you saw anything from Vox.
01:50:50.620
They are the new PBS, which I think, because Marissa Stride is the CEO, she's up here at my ranch because we're filming some stuff for PragerU kids, right?
01:51:11.200
Um, so they're claiming that you are becoming the new PBS, um, because you're going after our kids.
01:51:20.680
Uh, can, can you just, first of all, do you get any money from the federal government?
01:51:32.760
Doesn't that automatically disqualify you from being PBS?
01:51:39.780
I mean, I think the big thing about PBS is they're taking our federal dollars and, uh, using it in ways that I don't necessarily agree with and they can make money on their own.
01:51:50.180
So I don't, I think the press misses what the problem is with PBS.
01:51:55.800
Um, so tell me about what, what you are doing right now.
01:52:00.860
First of all, uh, let's start with the 250th anniversary.
01:52:10.400
And so in some ways they're comparing us to PBS because of that, because we believe that learning should be fun and it should be entertaining.
01:52:17.320
And that oftentimes when you're entertained, you can learn.
01:52:20.600
And so in that way, we are somewhat similar to PBS.
01:52:25.480
Um, but what we are doing is we're celebrating America.
01:52:29.280
America has never been perfect, but it's the greatest country on God's green earth.
01:52:34.200
And when we are teaching kids to grow up and not love their country, it is causing so many problems.
01:52:42.560
It's a mental health health issue for our children.
01:52:45.700
And so we are taking this opportunity for America's 250th birthday to just reignite patriotism and give some perspective that yes, America has its blemishes.
01:52:58.100
But America is a great country and has been a leader in greatness for so many years.
01:53:05.420
And so what we are doing is we're creating content for every single learner, four years old, all the way through 104 to remember what we're country.
01:53:18.580
And the nice thing is, is that it is, it's actual history.
01:53:23.460
I mean, we, we caught something, uh, yesterday or working on several of these, um, uh, videos that are going to be used in AP classes, right?
01:53:37.980
I mean, look, so many Americans are learning history through the lens of Howard Zinn.
01:53:43.160
Uh, for those who don't know who Howard Zinn is, I think he categorically destroyed the, the history classes in America, right?
01:53:55.200
Not all of it was a lie, but it's the footnotes.
01:53:57.940
It's, it's, it's without the greater perspective of, of what America is.
01:54:02.880
And so we are taking American history and we're making it fun and engaging.
01:54:07.960
And so that students who would watch this course that we're creating together will not learn, not only learn the truth about America, but we'll have a perspective and enjoy doing it at the same time.
01:54:21.360
And it's really amazing because we're not avoiding the bad stuff.
01:54:28.160
Um, and you know, I saw somewhere I read, you know, they, they were accusing you guys of, uh, PragerU is dismissing slavery and saying it's no big deal.
01:54:36.740
And I'm like, on what planet, in what parallel universe is PragerU saying that?
01:54:41.940
Well, what, what they're saying is we made a video that teaches about Christopher Columbus and we basically paraphrased what he would have said to two young kids.
01:54:51.240
And from Christopher Columbus's perspective, he probably thought that slavery was okay because that's what he did.
01:54:59.520
And so because we had the cartoon, Christopher Columbus say, oh, I think slavery is okay.
01:55:06.280
And then the kids responded back to him in this show that we made.
01:55:14.680
We know today that it was a terrible thing that the world engaged in slavery.
01:55:19.460
And then Christopher Columbus in this cartoon responds and says, oh, wow, I don't, I didn't have that perspective.
01:55:26.280
That is why we are being attacked because we are paraphrasing what Christopher Columbus would have said.
01:55:36.540
They're claiming that PragerU is claiming that slavery was okay because the character in our cartoon, that character, Christopher Columbus, said it was okay.
01:55:49.140
I think this stuff is coming undone quickly and they're panicking.
01:55:55.320
These teachers are moving from, you know, deeply blue states into red states.
01:56:01.000
And the states rightfully, you know, are saying, ah, we, we don't want any of that California crap in our schools, but they're, if they're licensed to be a teacher, they can teach anywhere.
01:56:12.540
But that's now changing because states are saying, no, you're coming from California.
01:56:18.620
I want to make sure that you know the things that, you know, are true and we're not having any of this woke crap.
01:56:25.760
This test that you're giving now, uh, and you've been asked by the states to develop this test and it is so, to me, first grade kind of questions.
01:56:37.580
I can't believe there is a problem with this at all.
01:56:52.720
The fact that the media and the administrators of woke schools are squealing over this test is unbelievable.
01:57:05.140
In California, teachers are required to take a course called the PRISM test.
01:57:10.120
Uh, I, I like to call it the prison test because frankly, I think teachers should go to prison.
01:57:17.820
The PRISM test is given to Californian teachers to, it's, it's not a test.
01:57:23.860
It's a six part course that teaches a teacher how to not differentiate between a boy and a girl, how to actually bring all of this sexualization that we've been complaining about in classrooms.
01:57:36.500
And so it's not just superintendents of education that have approached us with questions.
01:57:45.680
Parents are coming to us and saying, well, we don't know if we can trust these teachers anymore.
01:57:49.480
We're going to send our kids to our schools and, and have a teacher that can't pass a basic civics test.
01:57:57.400
That can't pass a best basic understanding of, of what a boy is and what a girl is.
01:58:01.900
So superintendent of education, Ryan Walters of Oklahoma approached us and said, can you just do something very basic?
01:58:07.560
Because the complaints are coming in when parents are sending their kids to schools where teachers who have come in from California and New York are in charge of a classroom and are bringing in the woke indoctrination that they've received in California.
01:58:24.200
Any idea how many teachers are failing this test?
01:58:29.920
So this is a brand new test, but I can tell you how many teachers have been forced to pass the PRISM test in California.
01:58:46.240
What's the primary, this is the first question.
01:58:48.340
What's the primary biological distinction between males and females?
01:59:09.960
At birth, how is a person's biological sex typically identified?
01:59:19.280
D, visual anatomical observation and chromosomes.
01:59:26.160
But I would say a lot of people on the left would say B, right?
01:59:33.880
I mean, you know, this only gets hard if you are completely disconnected from science and reality.
01:59:44.660
I have spoken to pediatricians and doctors, frankly, from all over the country who are forced to erase the question of whether they have a boy or a girl in the medical charts when they're receiving a new patient.
01:59:57.240
So, this is not just a problem in schools, but this is a problem in pediatric offices as well.
02:00:03.520
So, yes, sadly, we are living in the twilight zone where teachers have to be taught very basic common sense.
02:00:13.860
Name one reason the colonists fought the British.
02:00:24.720
D, protest high British taxes without representation.
02:00:29.400
I mean, honestly, fifth graders, in my day, fifth graders would be able to take this, you know, a hundred years ago.
02:00:41.920
John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Greg Washington, or George Washington?
02:00:51.980
Ended Prohibition, freed Confederate generals, freed the slaves in the North, freed the slaves in the South.
02:00:59.740
Honestly, you cannot be a teacher if you don't know these things.
02:01:05.140
And as much as we're giggling about it and, you know, it sounds funny, but it's really not funny, Glenn.
02:01:13.200
Part of what this test is doing is it's actually recalibrating what is happening in the classrooms.
02:01:18.700
It's reminding teachers to focus on what matters.
02:01:23.000
It's reminding teachers to actually look at the world through common sense, a lens of common sense.
02:01:28.420
And sadly, the teacher indoctrination centers, which is basically the teacher seminaries, the colleges for teachers, have been turning the world upside down.
02:01:39.860
And they're training these young teachers to go into our classrooms.
02:01:46.960
The problem is the Marxism that they're being taught.
02:01:51.360
Talk to me a little bit about Hungary because you just got back from Hungary, didn't you?
02:02:00.160
So what is happening now is the world is realizing that there's a real attack on common sense everywhere.
02:02:10.880
And PragerU, through our edutainment model, has been successful here in the United States.
02:02:17.080
I mean, as you could see, CNN, New York Times are all upset that we're becoming the new PBS, as they call us.
02:02:22.860
And we don't want to just create a system that helps America.
02:02:29.140
We want to create an industry that helps the world.
02:02:34.800
And so when other places, when other countries approach PragerU and say, hey, how do we do edutainment in our own country?
02:02:43.700
And so we have created now a training system for other countries so that they can bring these wholesome, patriotic values to their own countries.
02:03:05.140
For a very long time, I hate to say this, over the last 10 years, America has been exporting some real bad ideas.
02:03:15.060
It's been propagating a lot of this gender blur stuff.
02:03:17.740
And to countries that were dead set against it, but were starving, you can't get the aid unless you teach this.
02:03:27.260
We've been bribing other countries to do the wrong thing.
02:03:34.860
And so we feel that as an organization that is helping save America, we are trying to undo that damage as well.
02:03:43.140
And if we can train other countries to undo the damage, then that's what we're there for.
02:03:48.360
So do you base that on their stuff, or do you base that on the American understanding of freedom?
02:03:55.760
So we have a set of values at PragerU, which is what we call the American DNA, our understanding of freedom.
02:04:04.260
We are not looking to export American ideas to other countries.
02:04:08.600
What we are looking to do is teach them the model of how edutainment works, and to teach them a model of how PragerU follows its values.
02:04:20.360
Now, many of them, and we do make sure that the folks that we're working with do honor and respect our values.
02:04:26.740
We're not going to train a bunch of Marxists in doing so.
02:04:29.660
And many of them are using some of our videos as a baseline for teaching.
02:04:34.680
Well, you're doing God's work, and I am so proud to partner with you and to call you friend, and Dennis, the same.
02:04:42.620
Can you give me a quick update? I've only got a couple of seconds.
02:04:50.020
For those who don't know the background, he fell down.
02:04:55.360
The spinal cord injury is at the top of his spine, and so it makes it very, very difficult for him to breathe.
02:05:04.100
It's been already nine months that he's been laying down.
02:05:10.040
But the good news is he just completed another book.
02:05:21.160
By the way, if you want to give to PragerU, Mercury One has given to PragerU.
02:05:29.600
I mean, I really, I believe these guys really are saving the republic.
02:05:35.560
This month, they are doing a matching dollar for dollar.
02:05:38.940
So you give a dollar, somebody else will give a dollar to match it.
02:05:51.340
Let me tell you a little bit about our sponsor.
02:05:54.180
Remember the first time you ran down the hill as a kid, you were laughing, arms flailing,
02:06:00.180
Somewhere along the way, our knees started to go, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, slow down.
02:06:06.600
Now we just look at things and we're like, eh, not going to run down that.
02:06:09.720
There's a tweak in your shoulder, a stiffness in your back, or an ache that just won't quit.
02:06:13.620
Most people learn to shrink their lives to fit the pain.
02:06:16.560
They say, I'm done running down the hills, but that's not living.
02:06:20.920
Relief Factor was created for people who want to tear up that contract.
02:06:23.960
It's a simple daily plan designed to address the root causes of inflammation so your body
02:06:30.960
can do what it was built to do, move freely, because the goal isn't just less pain.
02:06:35.020
It's getting back to the way you want to live your life, you know, the wind in your face
02:06:39.580
and freedom in your steps and the laughter that says, I'm still alive.
02:06:44.100
That's relieffactor.com, 800, the number four, relief.
02:06:59.960
So if you happen to be watching on Blaze TV, what you're seeing is a video from Dearborn, Michigan, Saturday.
02:07:27.440
40,000 Shia Muslims took part in a religious procession commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein,
02:07:35.380
the grandson of Muhammad, that was killed in the Battle of Karbala in 680 A.D.
02:07:42.500
The one, that one, or the one that can't even tell you the president's name today?
